Mikkel Michelsen mentally enhanced – better motor skills? / Speedway GP

Mikkel Michelsen presented a different performance at the most important speed awards last year. He has his European title to thank for continuing to compete in Grand Prix.

Mikkel Michelsen is one of two Danish drivers competing in the Speedway Grand Prix in 2024 and is entering his fourth season after 2020, 2022 and 2023. technical problems. We worked hard during the winter to eliminate these problems and hopefully things will go better.”

Dane identified two problem areas: “I hope I have a few better solutions for different situations. I’ve worked on the psychological side of the game and it’s good to talk to someone from the outside who has a different perspective. I think it was good to bring me forward. I try to be clear in my head and to be able to do as in the European championship and the league.”

“In general, it’s not good to use too many engines,” Michelsen said of his machine’s equipment. “It’s true you have a few engines working. But since it didn’t work, I tried what worked. This and the mental state meant I wasn’t clear when I was on the line.”

The 29-year-old secured his place in the Grand Prix through the European Championship, where he showed consistent performance in four races and showed what he has planned for the Grand Prix. Michelsen won the title for the third time: “It’s the shortest championship with only four events. The fact that there is a wildcard for GP is a big incentive for everyone. There is no room for mistakes, you have to be very consistent in this race. The European Championship is now well organized and I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more events soon.”
